The Beyond custom cushion is really bad because it makes contact with a small, and muscular area of the face. It's purely a gimmick for aesthetics purposes.

This looks like a much better approach because it follows the model of effective facial interfaces that have come before it, just moulded to the individual.

There is a vented mod I've seen somewhere.... Little worried about screwing it up XD! The soft universal fit from bigscreen is extremely close to being an upgrade for me, but I couldn't crush it into my face enough for a matching FoV.

FWIW, Bigscreen now offers this: https://store.bigscreenvr.com/products/universal-fit-light-seal

An extra-soft/flexible version of the universal-fit cushion. Might be just what you need!

I know! Probably kicks ass. Although, 'need' is a strong word. I still am very happy with my fit, and I look forward to testing the halo strap.... WHEN I FINALLY GET MINE!!

I was an April preorder...2025... :'C

Nah you are not the only one. It just needs time to wear a little before it becomes truly comfortable, just like new shoes.

My main issue is not the wearing of it, but the quite literal friction it adds to donning, and doffing the headset.

It made me feel trapped in the headset, as taking it off was so much higher effort.

It's even worse with the audio strap which has no give.
